Description

Golden-crusted, tender-centered, and simple to make, this Easy Gluten‑Free Bread delivers warm, sliceable loaf goodness without any fuss or wheat.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten‑free all‑purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum)
  • 2 tsp instant yeast
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 large eggs


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together warm water, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and eggs.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix flour blend, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.
  3. Pour dry ingredients into wet and stir until fully combined—dough will resemble thick cake batter.
  4. Spoon dough into a greased loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. Cover and let rise in a warm spot for 30–40 minutes, until noticeably puffy.
  6. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  7. Bake loaf for 35–40 minutes, until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped.
  8. Let cool in pan 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Serve warm with butter, honey, fruit preserves, or olive oil and sea salt.
  • Pairs beautifully with soups, scrambled eggs, salads, or cheese boards.
  • Great for sandwiches, garlic toast, or homemade croutons.
  • Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 days; toast to refresh.
  • Freeze slices with parchment between them, and thaw or toast directly from frozen.
  • Reheat loaf in a 300°F oven for about 10 minutes to revive freshness.
  • Use flax eggs as a binder alternative for an egg-free version.
  • Stir in seeds or nuts before baking for added texture and flavor.
  • Ensure yeast is fresh and dough is fully mixed and risen to avoid gummy texture.
  • Fully baked when crust is golden and internal temperature reaches 205–210°F (96–99°C).
